They called me the "Fun Police" at high school. What a name. They were right; I loved a rule, and I hated them being broken. I didn't know I about high sensitivity or neurodivergence back then ... but it's clear that's what was playing out for me at the time.
On today's episode of SelfKind - a podcast for highly sensitive people - I'm talking about RULES as sensitive folk. Why they put us in a bind at times by helping us to feel safe but also leading us toward discomfort and inner criticism when they're broken.
Why do we love rules? Why are we so uncomfortable when they're broken? Tune in and let's explore.
